Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Coursera has sent me a list of recommended courses. One of them is Child Nutrition and Cooking. I don't know why they're so insistent that I should want to cook Ryan.

The University of Virginia is offering The Age of Jefferson. (272 last April. I'm not really sure there's a lot to be covered there.)

I expect his nutrition value will be in section one.

I'm working on developing Coursera courses now for a local university. It's kinda fun.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Are you one of those Raw Child types, billytea?

He's certainly got the wriggling part down pat.

Anyway, whenever I try to nom on him, he always tells me, "You can't eat me! I have bones!" He's got me there. My boy the vertebrate.

Nice.

Salad Aging Report: chicken salad that has been in the freezer for a month = perfectly fine. Maybe a little watery.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Bah -- I just got roped into a 9am meeting on a day I was planning to take off! Maybe I can do the call from home and still have the rest of the day. Stupid leaving boss.

I hear the Free Range kids taste better.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I hear the Free Range kids taste better.

More nutritious, too. Much better for you than kids raised in those video-game corrals.

But the video game kids are so plump and tender!
